Create Attio contacts from Zendesk webhooks

Connect custom Zendesk events to relationship data without building a field mapper.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Create Record

This tool creates a new record in attio for a specified object type (people, companies, deals, users, workspaces, etc.). it requires the object type and a values dictionary containing the attributes for the new record.

Why this helps

Custom support processes often leave teams copying contact data by hand.

  • Support custom Zendesk event sources
  • Reduce manual contact entry
  • Keep a prompt based workflow flexible

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Zendesk and Attio once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation and describe the record creation outcome.
  • 3Tell Notis how to interpret the incoming Zendesk payload and avoid duplicates.
  • 4Choose a Notis webhook trigger and select a report channel.
  • 5Send one real payload and review the created record.

Questions about this workflow
